Abstract
A light driver includes a converter configured to generate a drive signal for powering a light source based on a control signal, a modular controller board electrically coupled to a sensor board and configured to receive sensor data from the sensor board and to generate a first sensor control signal corresponding to the sensor data, and a primary controller configured to control the converter by generating the control signal based on the first sensor control signal.
Claims18
A light driver comprising:
- a converter configured to generate a drive signal for powering a light source based on a control signal;
- a modular controller board electrically coupled to a sensor board and configured to receive sensor data from the sensor board and to generate a first sensor control signal corresponding to the sensor data;
- a primary controller configured to control the converter by generating the control signal based on the first sensor control signal;
- and
- a main board on which the converter and the primary controller are positioned,
- wherein the modular controller board is physically stacked on top of, or is perpendicularly connected to, the main board.
